V for Vendetta, what do theses "V" words mean.?
Voila! in view, a humble Vaudevillian Veteran, cast Vicariously as both Victim and Villain by the Vicissitudes of Fate. This Visage, no mere Veneer of Vanity, is a Vestige of the Vox populi, now Vacant, Vanished. However, this Valorous Visitation of a bygone Vexation stands Vivified, and has Vowed to Vanquish these Venal and Virulent Vermin Vanguarding Vice and Vouchsafing the Violently Vicious and Voracious Violation of Volition! The only Verdict is Vengeance– a Vendetta, held as a Votive– not in Vain, for the Value and Veracity of such shall one day Vindicate the Vigilant and the Virtuous. [ Chuckling]Verily, this Vichyssoise of Verbiage Veers most Verbose, so let me simply add that it’s my Very good honor to meet you, and you may call me V

………………….can you translate all the V words i think is Latin with a mix of French

lol go to an online dictionary and translate it
Nick | Feb 11, 2010

translate into which language? I hope you don’t mean English because all of those words are already used in the English (some are loanwords such as voila)

edit:
if you agree with the idea that those words are not English because they’re not of Germanic and/or Anglo-Saxon origin, then be prepared to not consider at least 2/3 of the English lexicon as English per se. Of course they’re not of pure "English" origin, but hardly any words are!!! Their ETYMOLOGY is not English, but the words themselves are in this day and age.

Vox populi, Vichyssoise, and voila are commonly used, enough to be considered English. You’ve heard people who are not French say voila, right? You don’t order a cold leek soup, do you? And if you expose yourself to enough texts, you will encounter the phrase vox populi.
l.auren | Feb 11, 2010

The vords Vox, Vichyssoice and Voila are not English.
Vox is voice, Vichyssoice is a french sauce, I think, and Voila means ‘There it is!’
The rest, you’ll find in a dictionary..

Neat piece of writing.. I wonder if the writer can do this with a Z…
sommy | Feb 11, 2010

That is very creative writing. An avalanche of alliteration. All of the "v" words are English, if that definition is dependent upon their inclusion in an English dictionary. Vichyssoise is obviously of French origin and refers to a cold soup, but it is so well known and enjoyed by English speakers that it is part of our language.

There he crosses paths with Burke (Bill Goldberg) a bulky prisoner who can take care of himself. Twitch, despite being less muscular, is just as mouthy and is pretty much the same.

Help with possible neglect situation! Serious question, Ten points will be awarded!?
My finance and I have been together almost a year and a half. I have met his sister and his husband multiple times and hung out at their house etc etc. So here is my issue. She has four children ages 7, 3, 2, and 7 months. To me, they are developmentally behind. The 7 y/o not so much but especially the toddlers. They aren’t even trying to get potty trained, they are constantly having crusty noses, verbal skills are not there, very badly behaved etc. Her house is a mess! Dirty diapers everywhere, food crushed in the carpet, just all out disgusting. Her first child’s father has made CPS reports on her and nothing seems to get done. This past weekend, we were helping them move and she just allowed the baby to scream. I held him for most of the night. She doesn’t have socks or shoes on him and its the dead of winter. Not even a coat, just a car seat snuggie thing. How do I approach this situation? I have a 6 y/o daughter and a baby on the way. I don’t want my children around her kids… No one else seems to notice.. Am I paranoid or should I say something? My fiance gets upset when I mention it? Please help!
*edited to add* She is also a stay at home mom. I guess I just was more strict with my daughter…
As for the meals, they are pretty much pickers. For example when we have been there they eat but very little. Pizza, mcdonalds etc. I am really not trying to be rude, I am seriously concerned. Also, the baby was admitted to ER monday with pneumonia. I mentioned to her about his breathing on Saturday and she shrugged it off. Maybe I am just paranoid..

I don’t know where you live, but sadly in my area CPS hardly does anything with reports like that.
You are right, the situation seems like the kids are very neglected. If I were you I would report it. (It can’t hurt) If CPS decides not to investigate then there’s nothing you can do. But at least you have the peace of mind that you tried. If you do decide to report it, try to get more reasons for your report. And try to possibly get evidence. i.e, when your kids are at her house, act like your taking pictures of them playing, but your actually have her kids in the picture with their dirty appearance and the dirty house in the background. You haven’t mentioned if the kids have appropriate meals. This is a very important point too, when you make a CPS report. Does the mother feed them, if so, does she feed them enough, is it healthy food etc.
The dirty diapers all over the place are definitely a sanitary and health risk issue.
Another way is, that you could try to talk to the mother, although it is probably a tough thing to do. And from experience, as I work with kids that come from background like that, it is almost impossible to make them change anything. It is a very horrible environment for kids to grow up in!!!
Good luck!!

brown eyed girl | Feb 03, 2010

Well, a messy house is hardly a case for neglect. Lots of parents use the Cry It Out method for their infants, and the fleece carseat covers are plenty warm without extra layers. My daughter used to sweat in hers, and only in pajamas underneath! As for their potty-training and your opinions on their development, you are not their mother! If you don’t want your kids around hers, don’t bring them over there. Period. You cannot judge someone for raising their 4 kids the way they choose (especially when you only have one yourself). Even if you don’t agree with her parenting style, there’s not much you can do. CPS will not get involved unless the kids are being truly neglected or abused.
Object Permanence | Feb 03, 2010

Well if CPS won’t investigate, there isn’t a whole lot you can do about this situation. Although messy houses with 4 kids are pretty common. Also those snuggie things can be pretty warm, so at least she has something warm on the kid.
horselover1978 | Feb 03, 2010

I agree with the first response. I grew up in a family of 11 and it was inevitable that the house would get very messy at times. That doesn’t mean we were neglected. I also had siblings who didn’t potty train until they were almost 4. Same with verbal development. Some take longer than others. Not to mention, she has THREE little ones and it’s really difficult training them all.

My mother called CPS on my husband and I because she heard our baby crying for a long time. The agent told her they actually recommend putting a baby down and letting him cry if you feel overwhelmed and exhausted. Not to mention, some babies have colic and cry all the time. That doesn’t mean they are being neglected.

Nobody is a perfect parent and just because she isn’t as attentive as you would like her to be, you have absolutely no idea what it’s like to care for 4 young children. Having one child is EASY compared to even two or three. She has four!

Fantasia/2000 (1999)

IMDB rating: 7.20

Plot: In this update of Disney’s masterpiece film mixture of animation and music, new interpretations of great works of music are presented. It begins with an abstract battle of light and darkness set to the music of Beethoveen’s Fifth Symphony. Then we see the adventures of a Humpback Whale calf and his pod set to “The Pines of Rome.” Next is the humourous story of several lives in 1930’s New York City, scored with “Rhapsody in Blue.” Following is a musical telling of the fairy tale, “The Steadfast Tin Soldier” set to Dmitri Shostakovich’s Piano Concerto No. 2. Then a goofy Flamingo causes havoc in his flock with his yo-yo to the tune of the finale of “Carnival of the Animals.” This is followed by the classic sequence from the original film, “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” starring Mickey Mouse and followed by “Pomp and Circumstance” starring Donald Duck as a harried assistant to Noah on his Ark. Finally, we see the awesome tale of the life, death and renewal of a forest in a sequence featuring the composition, “The Firebird.”

Baader Meinhof Complex, The (2008)

IMDB rating: 7.40

Plot: Germany in the 1970s: Murderous bomb attacks, the threat of terrorism and the fear of the enemy inside are rocking the very foundations of the yet fragile German democracy. The radicalised children of the Nazi generation lead by Andreas Baader, Ulrike Meinhof and Gudrun Ensslin are fighting a violent war against what they perceive as the new face of fascism: American imperialism supported by the German establishment, many of whom have a Nazi past. Their aim is to create a more human society but by employing inhuman means they not only spread terror and bloodshed, they also lose their own humanity. The man who understands them is also their hunter: the head of the German police force Horst Herold. And while he succeeds in his relentless pursuit of the young terrorists, he knows he’s only dealing with the tip of the iceberg.

Lookout, The (2007)

IMDB rating: 7.40

Plot: An admired high school hockey player (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) with a bright future foolishly takes a drive in the night with his girl friend and two other friends with his headlights off with devastating results. The former athlete is left with a brain injury that prevents him from remembering many things for extended periods of time. To compensate, he keeps notes in a small notebook to aid him in remembering what he is to do. He also lives with a blind friend (Jeff Daniels) who aids him. Obviously, with the mental incapacitation, he is unable to have meaningful work. Thus he works as a night cleaning man in a bank. It is there he comes under the scrutiny of a gang planning to rob the bank. The leader (Matthew Goode) befriends him and gets him involved with a young woman (Isla Fisher) who further reels him in. After they get close and after reeling him in with his own failures, the bank plan unfolds. Confused but wanting to escape his current existence, he initially goes along with the scheme. After realizing he is being used, he attempts to stop the robbery, which of course immediately goes awry. Bruce McGill and Alberta Watson also co-star as the young man’s parents, who still search for the person that was there before the tragic crash.

Suggestion on what color shoes to go with…?
I know I’m a bit early for prom stuff, but I’m ordering my dress in like 2 days, and I want to start to be on the lookout for shoes and accessories to go with it:

http://www.newyorkdress.com/Terani/95119 Y.html

that’s going to be my dress, could someone be kind enough to suggest a color/colors of a shoes i should be keeping an eye out for? And do you think platforms are good for this dress? I love platforms =]

Black strapped heels would be your best bet since there is already alot going on at the top so simple is safest. But if you want to be edgy, a nice pastel color heel or beachy looking platform in pale yellows, pinks, and blues, would also be a nice way to go. Platforms would go well with the dress considering its beachy quality. Look out for platforms with light brown or tan heels. You may even be able to find some with twine wrapped around the heel and this would really compliment your look. Dangling earrings and loose hair matches this well. Try beachy waves, and you could maybe even take some notes from the models make up!!
Kewl Person | Feb 10, 2010

any color lol i think red ones will loook nice mabe …. stledos lol jk platforms would look good
Brookie | Feb 10, 2010

i would wear red shoes the same shade as the underlining thingy, or go for some statement black heels – simple yet classic
hope this helps and enjoy your prom!

Is this love? Or am I just stupid?
A very long story short..

I first met this girl when I was a teenager. She was so beautiful to me. I cannot fully explain it but the moment I saw her, I was covered in warmth, and I knew I was looking at the person who I finally wanted to look at. We said "hi" to each other and from that moment on we were inseparable. We spoke hours and hours a day every single day just truly getting to know each other. It was intense, so damn intense. We were young, yes I know. But it was just right. I could have married her right there and then, and I wish I had. She was just everything perfect to me. Everything that I was, she was and wasn’t; we fit perfectly in each others hands. She lived in a city far from me, as I did not drive. So it was near impossible to see each other when needed and at the time, (I had not known this for many years) but I was struggling with a substance abuse problem which effected me in the sense I had no responsibility, and the lack of capability to more forward. I was about 17 and I got kicked out my house, had no job, no license, no nothing. It started to wear on us both as at the time we were very emotional people (her especially). Eventually we broke up and I was absolutely devastated. I cannot fully explain the emotion toll I took over this but it was too much for me. My life went down in the drain. I invested everything I had emotionally into this beautiful girl and now we were not together and I had no idea what to do. Through the years I still (unknowingly) battled with alcohol, and me and this girl still spoke occasionally. I am well aware that it is nearly impossible for me to explain how much I loved her without boring you off. Anyway, I joined the Army in hopes of shaping my life up and fixing myself all-around in hopes when I came through I would be a man. It seems everything else I have done was to try to fix myself into the man she needed. And when I say this, I don’t mean change me as a person as a personality, I mean, change my responsibilities, my life, my career, my everything. For many years I have always felt that someday, when I am a man, and she is a woman, we will meet when the time is right and get back together. What makes it worse, is I have tattoos in her "memory" on my body, beautiful lyrics specifically. I still feel the same way I felt when I was a teenager, I still want to be with her and make her happy and help her fulfill her life. But I feel like that is so silly of me because it has been so many years. I have had girlfriends thereafter, and I have met so many people, but this girl man, there is just something about I cannot explain. She was just IT to me. She was everything a perfect dream could dream of. Every girl I meet, even years later, just doesn’t cut it for me. I just see a reflection of the girl in my past and they just don’t measure up. She was, and is, the most beautiful girl in the entire world to me. We still talk occasionally but I don’t want to ask her these silly questions. I don’t think of her all the time like I used to, very rarely or when I am showering and looking at my tattoos. But deep down, I can feel it in me..I still want to have a life with her. I think..

Another point to make it..I would be willing to fall in love again, and I have tried. But it has never been the same. She found me at the right time and I poured my entire heart into hers, and I feel like a lot of that part of me is still missing. I just don’t feel like my heart is capable of loving in such a deep and passionate way.

I could truly go on forever, but I will not..

Any ideas? advice?

PS. The hardest part is there was never a yes or a no. It is always left that maybe someday we will spend our lives together. She felt the way that I felt about her. This is something that lingers with me every single day of my life..will it ever be? I can’t help but ask myself..

Now I am older, and I have finally fixed my life. I am leading the life I wish I were then..
Hey, thank you guys for responding so well.

I just want to reiterate: I am happy, and I am very content with my life as it is going. My life is finally leading down the correct path.

I know I should tell her how I feel, even though I am 100% certain she knows (if not just from my tattoos alone).

My biggest concern/fear is that I am not fully ready to be her lover. I have it in my mind that we would be right for each other when I am my perception of a man. And of course, I am so nervous. We do speak, occasionally, not as often as I would like. One of the last times we talked she called me drunk and told me a lot of things that I wish she didn’t (her feelings for me and how she misses me). But, also, I think I am extremely afraid. As pathetic as it might sound, one of the last times we hung out it took me almost an hour to leave my house while she waited out front for me.

Imagining me being with her for the first time always makes me feel nervous, thus making me doubt so much..

be a man, and tell her the way u feel………..it doesn’t matter if she refuses,at least in future u won’t regret that u didn’t ask her at the right time

there is no magic bullet, you just got to call her up and see if she is amiable to the idea of dating you again. Shine on you crazy mormon.

Don’t we all. I screwed up the same way finally tossed in the towel and started living in the present, Get rid of the past it will eat you up. Hell I’m 66 and I never have forgot the females I loved, never will you just learn to deal with it. Throw in the towel life does get better, I’m happy and so can you.

You’re not stupid you’re in love and it’s time for you to make a decision for your life. It really is time to let go of me maybe or someday or somehow. You have to choose: either you want her back in your life (since you’ve been trying to become better for her which is great) or just forget about it. If you choose to forget about her, then you really have to stop comparing whoever you meet and just let go of the past. If you choose to ger her back into your life you better do it fast. Since she feels the same way and since you’ve made things better, I think you should give yourself another chance. I think there’s still hope. But if you don’t think it’ll happen, then just try to let go and go on. You’ll find someone to love if you let go of your past. It’s your life and you build it. So do things the way you think it’s best for you.

Your not stupid, and I totally understand this because I have lived the same situation. You need to take the chance and not let it pass by if you ever expect to get on with your life. I was 15 when my situation passed by. It took 15 years later to find closure. Yes I dated men had relationships but could never stop thinking of him,and comparing him to everyone else. He married, so did I, but yet I actually told my husband what the deal was. I was in Mich, and he was in Tenn. So I went to Tenn and met with him and talked with him. When I saw him, well in my case he had changed dramatically and to say for the extreme worse. I hate to sound shallow but he looked like hell. Yet in my heart I still felt the warm fuzzy thing. I noticed you used the term beautiful many times while explaining your feelings. Well the guy I remember was off the page gorgeous. The man I met 15 years later was well not even near getting on a page. I am sure you want honesty so here goes. I was over him the minute saw him. I do believe I really loved him at one time. I know I did. Yet seeing how he let himself go and settled in life and was no longer the man who wanted to change the world, and live life to the fullest was such a complete turn off to me. He lived on the land Mommy bought him. He became everything he said he would never be. I love adventure, I love to travel, I love to live life to the fullest. I realized from seeing him, that everything I ever wanted was right in my face. (My husband) Now is my marriage perfect no, is my husband the love of my life, yes. Had I not taken the time to get closure I would be cheating on my husband still because I never would have realized just what I had at home. You may find the opposite,and she may be the one and that is why you are still hanging on. Or you may find like I did somethings are better left to memory. Oh and no one can ever take those from you. I think the fair thing for you and other women is to make this encounter happen. Don’t say it can’t, because we live in internet world now. People can be found etc. Make it happen, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain by getting closure. (or getting with her) Meet with her and tell her what you told us. Get yourself free, one way or the other it is crucial for your future. If you end up like I did, then hey a women out there gets all of you and not just a part. Then your heart will be open to allow fairness to another women. Heck the women of your dreams could be right in your face right now and you can’t see because of blinders.
Hey wish you the very best.
